<\/p>\nBefore anything else…Poutine…<\/p>\n
What is Poutine? Well, poutine is a Canadian dish that consists of fries, cheese curds and gravy! It is very popular in Canada and it is pretty much known around the world as a classic Canadian snack food.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Brief history<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Poutine first appeared in Quebec in the 1950\u2019s. It was widely popularized across Canada and beyond in the 1990\u2019s. It is pronounced as “poo-tin”.<\/p>\n When I first came to Canada in 2010, I had no idea that I would fell in love with this dish. It\u2019s a very simple dish but, this was very new to me since I didn\u2019t get to eat this type of food back in the Philippines. We mostly ate rice. I don\u2019t remember eating fries that much when I was younger. I only started eating them so much when I came here to Canada. A friend of mine introduced me this dish. She said that I should try it out since I\u2019ve never had them before. I remember thinking \u201cwoah, this taste so good!\u201d. I consider this dish as my \u201cgo to\u201d food, my comfort food. Whenever I need a quick snack or meal, I always go for poutine. As for drinks, any soda works, but specifically iced tea is my favorite drink that goes with poutine the most. Back when I was in Grade 9, I remember I would order this together with my best friend at the mall. We would eat this dish every weekend. ?<\/p>\n What are the ingredients?<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n Ingredients include: Fries, Cheese curds, and Gravy (other toppings are optional) <\/em><\/p>\n The procedure<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n *I personally like the original recipe which is just the gravy with lots of cheese curds. However, sometimes, I like to change things up a bit and change the gravy sauce to cheese sauce and I like to add some bacon bits on top as well. I have tried many poutines in many different places but personally, I think poutine in Canada is still the best. They know how to cook it well!<\/p>\n You can get poutine anywhere!! I suggest going to fast food restaurants. They most likely serve poutine at any burger\/pizza places. My favorite place to get poutine is in New York Fries!<\/p>\n Bibliography: <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Team Mike and Steph. \u201cPoutine recipe\u201d.
